The Retired -Fucking's Greatest Hits

I thought that the song title by the Blood Brothers was hilarious and so why not use it for a deck title?
3 Nuisance Engine

2 Ixidron

4 Seal of Fire
4 Goblin Bombardment

4 Natural Affinity
3 Fire // Ice
4 Think Twice
3 Repeal
3 Reins of Power

6 Island
2 Gemstone Mine
2 Terminal Moraine
2 Shivan Reef
4 Forest
4 Mountain
4 Sulfur Falls

4 Deep Analysis
2 Arc Lightning
This deck doesn't do what it wants to do very well. What it wants to do is: cast Natural Affinity, and then cast Reins of Power, with Goblin Bombardment on the table. The opponent has zero lands, I have all the lands, all is well. 

Or, Natural Affinity, Ixidron and make all the lands creatures that cannot be morphed: just plain old 2/2s that Ixidron can just beat down on.

But there is entirely too much nonsense going on. The mana base is out of whack, the combo costs seven mana and there's no way to protect it. It is the Glory of Cool Things and it will never come to pass. 

So I'm taking this apart.
